Overview: Samsung reportedly plans to replace unlimited free Galaxy AI tools with usage credits and paid subscription tiers, according to a ZDNet report. The Galaxy AI Premium subscription would start at $4.99 per month or $47.99 per year, and the report says prices would rise above that for higher tiers. The top tier would offer usage limits four times those of the free plan, with no free usage limit specified.
